In one of your pics I could see my place.
Am a fan of your travels.

I am wondering how you got the shot of La Giocanda without any crowds? Your timing of many of the other photos is great also.
Many thanks,
bigguyinpasadena, yes, I tried to see as much as possible

I queued up quite early for the Louvre, and basically speed-walked to the Mona Lisa as soon as I got in just to see it up close before the crowds arrived.
